You have to be joking. Windows 8 has only been out for a month or two, with a planned relaunch very soon. There's no way you're going to see Blue until at least September by my guess. Releasing Blue now would be the equivalent to Microsoft saying, "whoops...we messed up some things with Windows 8" which will just cause all manner of..."debate."

Yes, but that "relaunch" crap is total BS. Not one self respecting blogger or tech site ran that "story".

Exactly. I don't know why people even reference this crap that is literally made up out of thin air. Fact 1: No one knows anything about "blue". Fact 2: If someone did know about it, other then making up some bogus logical progression like "bug fixes", then they would need some pretty solid evidence and if they had inside sources would leak an ISO or upgrade installer.

Since we don't know how big or what is going to be in Windows Blue we can't say for sure how long it will take to come. If all it really is is performance and UI tweaks without any real new features (just some more options that users want etc) then it should take that long honestly. I can see them going for a summer release at best, Say late June or July. Otherwise we'll see it in Oct-November since that seems to be the time of the year MS likes to release all it's OS related updates. I also expect Windows Blue to go hand in hand with the next update to Windows Phone 8.
